Good spot and nice pics too.

Yep, lit her up like a disco and blew the wax out of his ears, never seen a bloke so relieved when all I wanted to do was look at his car,

I think he said he had a mate that painted it in yarraville somewhere,

mechanicals were also done by a mate locally,

told him to join up this chat room, see what happens, he is also restoring a 63 valiant sedan..

Like the time I was pulled over for RBT in Docklands in the Moke. Four Police talking to me about the car, and everyone driving past wondering what I did wrong. 8)

Yeah I must admit that there are a few out there that do have a life, and have other interests other that raising the revenue for the state.
